For fishing boat captain Ricardo Mario Ribot Cabrera the world's longest sea chase may have been his final voyage.

But he's far from bitter about the two-year illegal fishing case which has stranded him in Australia for the past two years.

The 58-year-old Uruguayan and his four shipmates were cleared on Friday of poaching Australian fish stocks, ending a two-year legal battle that cost the Australian government millions of dollars.

A Perth District Court jury took just two and a half days to find the men - from Uruguay, Spain and Chile - not guilty of illegal fishing charges.

Australian authorities chased the Viarsa 1 and her crew for three weeks through 7,000km of ocean in August 2003 - the world's longest sea chase.
